For Explorers, Mrs. Blair An- drew reported groups at Borden, Charlottetown, Georgetown, Ken- sington, New Glasgow, Summer- slde and a new one at Summer- field not yet affiliated. Total mem- bership was 102, and amount rais- ed $114.66.

Mrs. L.M. Murray reported 16 affiliated C.GJ.T. groups and a membership of 135 raising $98.16 in addition‘ to gifts of clothing, bedding, toys, etc.

Two Mission Circles have a to- tal membership of 33 and raised $86.00 Trinity Circle (Charlotte-

town) sent a box to the port work-'

er, two afghans and a box of used clothing overseas. O’Leary group decorated Christmas trees fo. the community hospital.

Mrs. George Dunning, observed that in 88 reports received, 25 did not have a press secretary and strongly urged that these be ap- pointed at next meetings\ Also, news items for "United Church- man” or “Missionary Monthly” should be sent directly to Mrs. Christine Maclnnis and not to Dr. Munroe.

Mrs. Alexander MacKay's "Mis- sionary Monthly" and “World Friends” report was read by Mrs. J .D. MacFarlane. Subscriptions to the former were 1312 (a decrease of 86), and to the latter 938 (an in- crease of 63). These periodicals are as important to missionary groups as tools to a carpenter.

The report sent by Mrs. Louis Cairns showed 47 auxiliaries hav- ing Christian Citizenship and Temperance secretaries, the ef- forts of most being in the field of temperance. She recommended that a few minutes be devoted to the subjects at each meeting or else having an entire meeting dur- ing the year.

The Associate Members re ort sent by Mrs. Ethan Stewart ot- ed 447 members who gave a total of $827.83.

Community Friendship secre- tary, Mrs. Russell Leard of Cas- cumpeque, reported 10,454, home calls, 4842\hospital calls, 4240 cards hent, 1849 treats given, 950 letters and 381 gifts of flowers. These figures give but an incom- plete picture and secretaries are asked to keep records of work done in order to have accurate reports.

Corresponding Secretary Mrs. Stanley Thompson reported that

The home, usually visited by the Youngs for three months each winter, was barred to reporters after the shooting.

Mead said Young was found dressed in street clothes.

Young and his wife, the former Anita Ten Eyck O’Keefe, arrived here the day after Christmas. He had attended a meeting of the New York Central board of di- rectors a few days ago at which it was decided not to declare a dividend at this time.

all of the 89 auxiliaries and 9 affiliated societies had sent in reports although some were only partially filled out.

MORE PARCELS

Supply Secretary, Mrs. Heber Hardy, noted a marked increase in parcels for overseas and for

siderably more than two tons of clothing and bedding have been forwarded. In addition, some food and clothing had been distributed to local needy families. It is important to read letters at meet- ings in order to know what art- icles are needed and where.

Mrs. J. S. MacLeod reported most auxiliaries having a Chris- tian Stewardship secretary whose purpose it. to aid the individual woman in recognizing her stew- ardship of the several trusts which God has given her--namely, time, talents, strength, person- ality, influence, prayer, money. Whether we are faithful or un- faithful stewards depends upon the use we make of these abili- ties and possessions. Let us also aim to have every woman in our congregations a W. M. S. mem- ber. The new objective for 1958 is $20,600--an increase of 13 per cent--because more is needed for salaries, maintenance and pen- sions.

Candidate secretary, Mrs. K. A. Parker, stated that in the next 10 years, 600 additional trained women will be needed in Canada and overseas as educators, me- dical workers, directors of Chris- tian education, writers, social workers. “The Christians are they who hold the world together.”

Mrs. Harold Laird reported 72 auxiliaries having literature secretaries. “Anna and the In- dians” was by far the most popu- lar book on the recommended reading list. The Dominion Board book award (henceforth being discontinued) goes to the Ken- sington auxiliary for being the best read in the Island presby- tery---558 books being credited to the 28 members. Next best were Marie (17 members), 226 books; and Cape Wolfe (13 members), 156 books. It was decided to con- tinue the award inthis presby- tery-the purchase price of an award book to be deducted from the expense fund.

Treasurer, Miss Rhoda Brown, reported $20,065 net amount rais- ed. This’ exceeds the allocatioul by $1215. It was unanimously de- cided to divide this equally be-' tween the following two of the several G. B. A.

ANOTHER GOAL

Once firmly established in Al- leghany, Young set his sights 911 the New York Central, with its 10,714 miles of track and assets in excess of $2,500,000.000-

The assets included some of the most valuable real estate in the world, but the road also was heavily mortgaged. _

In his famous 1954 battle to gain control of the New York Central. Young was helped by two‘ other wealthy Texans — Sid Wllllams Richardson and Clint W. Murchi- son Sr.

Richardson and Murchison. life- long cronies, bought 800,000 shares of Central stock for $20.- 000,000 in order to vote the prox- ies for Young. And they d1d_ II with borrowed money—not using a cent of their own. _

The majority of tllose present then repaired to the church so- cial hall to partake of at noon- tide meal served by the lunch committees of the Trinity aux- iliaries. RESOLUTIONS

At 2 p. m. the resumed business in the west par- lor. The following resolutions were presented by Miss Call- beck: "-

Resolved that a letter be sent to Mrs. Robert Large expressing to C. F. C. Y. our appreciation of their generosity in allotting pro- gram time to the interviewing of special W. M. S. guests such as Mrs. Watari and Miss Beryl Mor- son, and for flash announcements of this meeting.

Resolved that letters of ap- preciation be sent to the “Guar- dian” and “Patriot” for space given in their columns to photos and reports of our W. M. S. work.

Resolved that we express (by letter) our thanks to the janitor who made us cornfortable and to the ladies of the Trinity aux- iliaries who served a delicious lunch.

Discussion on a viriety of sub- jects, including films and tape interviews, went on until 3 p. m. when a public meeting opened in the Heartz Memorial Hall, Mrs. F. W. Cutcliffe presiding.

The meeting opened with the final two stanzas of the theme hymn. Mrs. K. A. Parker in- troduced the guest speaker, Miss Mary MacDougall, R. N., for- merly of Truro, N. S., and now on furlough from the United Church mission field in Angola, West Africa. Miss MacDougall congratulated the W. M. S., the leaders in particular, on the splendid reports she had listened to. and encouraged them to con- tinue the good work.

She then gave a very interest- ing address, illustrated with fine color slides, on the work being done by the missionaries in Angola. This showed very clearly the different phases of the work, how much is being accomplished, and the great need for more workers and funds to carry on an expanding program. Of special in- terest was the new sanatorium for tuberculosis patients at Dondi, and the classes of native

Young was born in Canadian, Texas, Feb. 14, 1897. Propheti- cally, as a boy in the Texas Pan- handle he had the, nickname “Railrroad" beca-use his initials were R.R.

He inherited several thousand dollars from the estate of his grandfather, but lost the inher- itance in a business venture and a plunge into Wall Street, then went to General Motors in 1922. REGAINS FORTUNE

Young resigned s $35,000-a-year job as assistant treasurer of GM in 1928 and regained his fortune in the Wall Street crash in 1929. He had predicted the crash and had sold short.

With his newly won assets, he turned to his railroading career.

He retired in 1935, but soon learned idleness was not for him. Ills financial activity became greater than ever.

The Youngs, who were married in 1916, had a daughter, Eleanor Jane Young, who died in a plane accident in 1941.

A mem- ber of the Keith Rogers Mem- orial Club, he received most of his initial instructions frc l fellow member, George Shelfoon.

The young operator will have to spend six months sending with key before he will be allowed 0 use the microphone. If qualified at that time he will then be able to converse directly with other operators, but only on the 10- me- tre band. Following a further six months of this he will become eli- gible to write the operator's ex- amination necessary to qualify for permission to use the full range of all amateur bands.

Terrier Club 5 Is Organized

TORONTO — A dog club devot- ed exclusively to furthering the breeding and development of ter- riers was recently organized here by dog fanciers from across Can- ada. Elected President of the All Terrier Club of Canada was Tho- mas Adams, Unionville, Ont. Club officials report many dog fanciers across Canada and in the United States have already joined the club. Plans are now being made for a Terrier Specialty show proposed to be held later this year.

Club vice-president Ken Doyle, R.R. 1, Richmond Hill, Ontario, was appointed] membership dir- ector. ,

IIAMS EVERYWHERE

The fact that ham operators exist in all parts of the world and in every social group, is well illustrated by an examination of the many confirmation- of- con- tact cards that adorn the walls of Mr. Shelfoon’s studio.

In the year that he has been operating George has contacted all regions of Canada, every state in America with the exception of Montana, England, Ireland, Italy, Yugoslavia, France, Sweden, Hai- ti, South America, and many oth- er countries. Among cards that he particularly prizes are several from Hollywoodl and one from Madrid, sent by the Minister for Air in the Spanish government.

“As these and other scientific experiments continue, the adopt- ion of A world-wide atoms-for- peace program becomes more in- evitable to permit all scientists to devote their skills and energies to the benefit of mankind—not to its destruction.”
